Protect the Plants at Democracy Prep with Harlem Grown!

July 14, 2018

10:00 AM - 02:00 PM EDT

New York City Platoon

Event overview

The Kids at Democracy Prep in Harlem need our help! The mission of Democracy Prep is to educate responsible citizen-scholars for success! They nurture children to get in the college of their choice and for a life of active citizenship. The Mission Continues with Harlem Grown will be beatifying the children's gardening and playground space with a fence. This fence will help protect the garden and plants from the rambunctious kids and help them learn by allowing for a separate space when they are in the garden. So come out and help the children of Democracy Prep Harlem with Harlem Grown beautify and improve their school! Charlie Mike!

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
